Comments:
You do not make clear whether the dropout rate is high or not. Is Tolman in an urban or suburban setting? How does its dropout rate compare with similar schools?
Your proficiency graph is interesting.
Why do you think that more poor students are proficient in ELA than non-poor students?
Is this graph referring to proficiency as measured by the NECAP? Should you say this?
You note an interesting fall-off in teacher response on the SALT survey. Can you infer anything from this in combination with the answers you include?
Why do you find the student survey answers "shocking?" You should explain this interpretation to your reader.
